Taking the Test

Carotid Doppler Study:
An ultrasound of the neck and carotid arteries will be performed to determine if you have any thickening of the innermost layers of the arteries delivering blood to your brain.

Stress Echocardiogram:
You will undergo a treadmill stress test that includes a complete echocardiogram prior to a period of exercise and a second echo-cardiogram to assess cardiac function after exercise. This test will also determine your cardiac fitness level.

Calcium Scoring Test:
This state-of-the-art CAT scan test will determine if there is any calcification of your heart arteries, an indication of your level of risk for heart disease.

Report

Following the tests, you will visit with a cardiologist, who will review the results of the tests with you, explain their significance, and answer any questions you may have. A final written report will be mailed to you as well as your primary care physician.

While you enjoy a healthy lunch, a registered dietitian will ask you about the types of foods you generally eat and will make recommendations for improving your diet.

The “package rate” for tests, consultations, and final report is $1,675. This represents significant savings over the individual cost of each test and consultation. For more information, call (914) 366-3740.
